Here is an excerpt of Vinovogue's Vinexpo Asia-Pacific special issue in which you will find our Ombrone 2010, with ratings and notes from the two Best Sommeliers of the World who tasted it blind:
Andreas Larsson - Intense dark ruby red. Quite balsamic notes with hints of dried fruit, leather, and dark cherry, the palate is well integrated with a good evolution/complexity, ripe fruit, integrated tannin, fresh, long and dark fruity aftertaste, still youthful on the finish with rich tannin, should develop well for a long time. 93
Markus Del Monego MW - Dark purple red with violet hue. Seductive nose with elegant notes of blackcurrants, blackberries and mild spices, discreetly smoky nose. On the palate well structured and balanced with excellent weight and length. Hints of dark chocolate in the finish. 95

Both the magazine and the journal had a massive distribution all over Hong Kong - airport, restaurants, hotels, bar, cafes and wine shops - as you can see in TASTED's newsletter.
